After finishing my first hardline custom loop I have had trouble hitting 5ghz without hitting 90+c(while running a stress test)on my cpu and Vrms. I have little experience with overclocking CPU’s and memory as with most of the pcs I’ve built I have left the bios almost untouched. I have tried messing with offset/tried to under-volt it but had no luck. I understand that the 9900k does run hot but not this hot, especially with a custom loop.
 

My rig

Cpu: i9 9900k

Motherboard: Msi z390 Godlike

Memory: Corsair dominator platinum 32gb 3600mhz

Gpu: Rtx 2080 ti kingpin/w hydrocopper 

6 Corsair ll120 fans and an ek pe 360 mm rad

Problem is with my current configuration I can’t fit two rads/ my gpu is just too large.

Well it looks really nice! 

I had an issue many years ago. Ran out of room with my Antec 900 case. So I got my hands on a SilverStone Tj07. Never had a problem with space since. Didn't look as nice as your case though.

Do you have any other large case recommendations preferably with ample liquid cooling support/only because I had enough trouble putting this thing together as it is. The distribution block made it so much easier to route tubing

Fractal Design Define R6 Black TG is a nice case. 

Maybe Phanteks, they make some really nice cases.
